For a good budget starter, I would go with these victorinox http://www.amazon.com/Victorinox-7-Piece-Knife-Rosewood-Handles/dp/B0015ZUQ8A/ref=pd_sbs_k_38
They are some of the best values in knives you will find.
There is one other set I have handled that surprisingly impress me, good heft, solid build, user friendly, good factory edge, and steel that is comparable to standard german makers' steel.

Here is another that is a good starter without the redundancy. The wusthof classic chef's knife is the prototype for german chef's knives. Excellent heft, fit and finish as good as it get, and perfect rocking motion. Just get a honing steel to go with it.

There is another conversation in this sub about a MAC knife. The gist is that you will be more than satisfied with one really good chef's knife, a cheap replaceable parer, a bread knife, and a honing steel (or ceramic one). In hindsight, I would go this route. It may not be as sexy, but having one really superb knife can make all the difference. The wusthof set above comes close. I personally am a western style japanese knife fan, but I started out learning to take care of less finicky knives before I moved on to them.
Hope this helps, a good knife makes a HUGE difference in kitchenwork.
